anyone using piega speakers?

I've owned Piega C8 LTDs for 5 years - the longest I've held
onto any speaker - and have zero desire for anything else.
They are very open, fast, transparent sounding speakers and
are not what I'd considered laid back. My guess is that some
people who hate these speakers just don't like this type of
presentation. Pick your poison, I've owned Harbeths and Verity
Audio's and didn't like either one, though they both have huge
followings and fans. If you're a fan of electrostatic speakers
the Piega's might be up your alley. Note, I've only heard
Piega's w/ high quality tube amps.

Thank you all for your comments.  What strikes me is that NONE of the responders have direct experience with the TC50, although many have owned or heard other models of Piega.  I still think they sounded great in the showroom, but what this tells me is I'm likely to have a terrible time if I ever want to sell them. 

Sorry folks, I was replying to the wrong thread!  Although my reply was equally applicable in 2011 as it is today. If you'd like to add anything you've learned over 8 years, please feel free to respond to my 2/7/19 post at:  https://forum.audiogon.com/discussions/take-a-chance-on-piegas
